Color steel conveyor cover is mainly made of galvanized corrugated steel sheet or color coated steel sheet. The presence of a galvanized layer provides a first layer of protection for the steel sheet, effectively insulating it from air and moisture and slowing down the rusting process. The color coating further enhances the protective properties and gives the rain cover a wide variety of colors. Coatings are often weather resistant, withstanding long-term exposure to UV rays and preventing fading and chalking. In some high-temperature environment, the coating can also maintain stable physical properties, will not be deformed due to temperature changes, cracking and other problems. The thickness of
color steel plate is generally between 0.45mm - 0.8mm. Thin 0.45mm color steel plate is suitable for some places with relatively low requirements for protection, small conveying capacity and mild environment, and its cost is relatively low, which can control the expenditure while meeting the basic protection requirements. And 0.8mm thick color steel plate can cope with more severe working conditions, such as in strong winds, frequent rainstorms, or conveyor conveying heavier, larger impact materials on the conveyor, thick color steel plate by virtue of its higher strength, can withstand a greater impact of the external forces, to protect the integrity of the rain cover and protective effect. Structure Design Advantage
Cover Body Shape Design: The cover body of color steel rain cover mostly adopts arc or arch design. From the mechanical point of view, this shape can disperse the pressure exerted by the outside world evenly and avoid stress concentration. When strong winds come, the arc-shaped or arch-shaped structure can effectively reduce wind resistance and lower the risk of wind damage to the rain cover. At the same time, this shape is conducive to the rapid sliding down of rainwater, reducing the time for rainwater to accumulate on the surface of the cover, and reducing the potential risk of corrosion caused by water accumulation. Connecting parts and installation methods: The connecting parts, as the key to fixing the rain cover, usually use connecting angles or Z-beams. The length of these connecting parts is the same as the installation length of the conveyor cover, and they are securely fixed to the channel steel or small angle steel on both sides of the conveyor frame by welding or bolting. When installed, they are often arranged in a “pin” pattern, with each piece of rain cover overlapping each other. This installation not only forms a good sealing effect, which can effectively block the intrusion of rain and dust, but also enhances the stability of the whole rain cover system, so that it can remain firm even under complicated working conditions. Special Design Consideration: In order to meet the needs of different usage scenarios, the color steel rain cover also has a variety of special designs. For example, every certain number (e.g. 10 pieces) of ordinary rain cover will be set a piece of observation type rain cover. Observation rain cover is usually equipped with transparent observation window, the material is mostly high-strength, wear-resistant plexiglass or toughened glass, which is convenient for the operator to observe the running condition of the conveyor belt in real time without dismantling the rain cover, such as whether the conveyor belt is deflected or not, and whether the material is conveyed smoothly or not, so as to discover and deal with the potential problems in a timely manner. For the folding point of the convex arc section of the conveyor, the folding point cover is specially designed. The shape of the folding point cover is precisely calculated and designed to realize seamless connection at the folding point to ensure that the rainproof and protection effect is not affected. In addition, for the conveyor equipped with deflection switch, it is also equipped with deflection switch cover, which can play a good role in protecting the deflection switch from rain and dust, ensure the normal operation of the switch, and improve the safety of conveyor operation.
